    I liked this event , the solo event was completely reasonable in my opinion. It was doable to reach 13-14 milestones without spending ( except maybe the 1st loot coins) with a bit of work, the last milestones being for the spending community. Imo that’s fair enough, even tho to have an event that can be maxed without spending now and then is nice aswell. About the fixed shard amounts time will tell if that’s a good or bad change, if the shards of those champs stay in game and can be obtained even after this event then imo it is a positive change because you can work towards new champions . But if the champions disappear completely, like for example Afa, thats a bad thing. I know ppl that only need 20 more shards to obtain Afa and He was never seen again after his event. 

    The only real downside in this Event was , as mentioned in a few posts already, that the feud score didn’t count for the faction event . After all it is a faction feud so the accumulated points should count for the faction.


    All in all this event was fun tho and had fair rewards especially with the added prizewall for the Medaillons. Keep up the good work.

    Hey joe686180 at least try to hide if u just copy paste feedbacks from other ppl, just copy pasting my whole text is a joke and hopefully disqualifies you from the giveaway.

    Admins please take care of this.

    Can't really say if something of this event could be saved


    FACTION FEUDS: red ring was a constant...during matches, during loading screens, while trying to pick an opponent....everywhere....and made the whole thing nearly unplayable! Not to mention the fact that the score boost perk disappeared after the first flash feud....and it's something we bought!!!


    FACTION EVENT: garbage rewards and misleading information on the blog, to be changed from the top to the bottom!!!


    SOLO EVENT: for what you asked, you gave too little....rewards-wise was a failure, not to mention the bug at the beginning...with just one pull players could get over 500k....after 15 minute the fix came, but that's not fair to those that came late.


    PRIZEWALL: 30 million coins would have been more fair instead of only 20.


    TOURS: the choice of contest superstars was completely unbalanced.

    Solo: Not bad but impossible to max without spending. Even with heavy spending rewards were just ok and nothing that would justify the amount required.

    Warscore: Great and with the 1st win bonus a lot were able to get some good rewards.

    Faction: Awful. The fact it was pure TU before a kickoff TU is ridiculous. Warscore was always a point method for flash feuds and suddenly it was removed when the entire player base read the blog. Not even a post to say it had an error, players were clueless when the event and feud were live and point were not counting.

    Perks: They hurt more than help. Would be great if we could go back to how they were in the past. Or if they could become helpful because right now they are not.

    Tours: Just ok. Nothing special in there. Rewards were very poor and could have been a lot better. Bags with shards, resources or loot coins as we used to get could have made it much better.

    Prize Wall: A lone positive aspect in a weekend to forget. We could have seen more items tho, like rare posters shards and more straps, like affiliation ones.

    The tours have been easy to navigate, and the actual solo event for Macho has been fair. Those two, along with the community event helped clear a bunch of milestones. The prize wall, with the exception of Kid Lightning/Viper strike confusion has been great as well.

    the overwhelmingly frustrating part was the faction contest and feud itself. Between the abysmal blog post with wholly inaccurate information that was kept on the blog, and the quiet removal of the warscore being a part of the faction event, that sets a bad precedent. Not to mention that the expectation for these moves to be made right before a talent up is just wrong.

    This event had a lot of really good things, and lot of really bad things.



    Good:



    ·      The tours were great. 4 matches is the perfect length. Rewards were fine for these, and required characters weren’t impossible.



    ·      Not requiring the chase card for the tours is absolutely the right way to go. Please keep this up.



    ·      The structure of the solo contest was good. You could get to milestone 13 without spending, which I think is a fair target. It’s great that at least 1 emerald token is accessible to everyone.



    ·      The prizewall for the flash feud tokens was excellent. A great opportunity for everyone to get 20 million coins, 2k TP and a good plate. This was by far the best thing in the event in my opinion.



    ·      The war score event, and the structure for the flash feud scoring is very good, and please keep this. I’d like to see higher milestones for the war score event, but the overall concept for the entire community is a very good one. 20 million was certainly achievable for many players, maybe look at taking it even higher?



    ·      Giving 100k first time win bonus for feud matches is one of the best changes introduced to feud. It encourages people to use stronger line ups and leads to a much more enjoyable feud experience. Very positive, please keep this up.



    ·      The community event was also great. Good milestones, and well structured. At the time of writing, we’re very close to completing it. That’s how it should be – set at the level where it’s an enjoyable chase for the entire community.



    ·      Having static shard bags is absolutely the right way to go. They are so much better than the ones with a range. Everyone can understand that there probably won’t be enough shard bags and chests to get the chase character but knowing how many shards you’ll end up with is great. Please keep this up.



    Bad:



    ·      The faction event was very poor. Not having the war score count for anything faction related was disappointing. This basically turned the faction event into a talent up event. Considering the next talent up event for the zombie MLC starts today, most people held back on this one.


    ·      In addition, the rewards from the faction event weren’t as good as the solo or war score contests, so there was very little incentive for this.



    ·      The worst part about the faction event was the change that was made to the blog, removing the line from the contest that war score would count. This is another example of a communication problem from Scopely. The issue had to be raised by the players, and then it was changed silently. No mention on the blog of the change, just removed without saying anything. Subject to change does not absolve you of communicating changes, especially such a big one. This was a real letdown for everyone.



    Suggestion: Keep the war score for solo, and have an element for faction that still requires participation in the feud, like ‘win xxx brawls’ or ‘win xxx matches with xxx characters’. You need both solo and faction elements to have the event be a success.



    ·      Line bonuses for all 3 feuds were significantly changed from what was first published on the blog. This would be fine if it was something small, but in each case they were made substantially lowered. This is another example of the players getting the short end of the stick AND Scopely not being transparent about the changes. Again, subject to change does not mean that you don’t have to communicate. It would have been so much better to mention on the blog the changes that were made. Instead, we the players find things out when the events go live, and we have very negative surprises. No issue that changes sometimes need to happen. However when it’s  for every single flash feud, AND they’re a lot worse than what was originally communicated, AND there’s no communication about it, something is clearly not working. It’s that bad combination of last-minute changes and no communication that players really dislike.


    Suggestion: When you make changes to the blog, include an edit history of what changed.



    ·      The disappearing steps perks. This was really bad, and it’s not the first time it’s happened. The war score perks were updated halfway through the event. Those that purchased them early were hurt by Scopely’s mistake of having the wrong timer on the steps. This meant that the perks expired while there was still at least one feud left to go. The perks should be available for the entire duration of the feud. Many will be requesting refunds for these items. This type of problem should not happen with something that real money is spent on.



    Suggestion: Fix the war score step perk. Make sure that the timer is fixed before the items go on sale.

    I guess imitation is the sincerest form of flattery?

    My biggest complaint is the occasional glitch in scoring that led to not getting the 1st time bonus. Managed to squeeze a fued in at the last minute. Won the battle with about 10 seconds to spare. Was given 6k to my feud score. Missed on the next rank by 30k. On the plus side I only missed out on Health packs so wasn't to bothered.


    Agree with those who say the incentive to use stronger rosters was good.


    Tour was good. Would prefer that rewards stay more open like that. Especially the last weekend when you already have a victory tour going that most of us won't get to do.

    Should stand by the blog announcements. Removing the war score for faction feud was not right. Forcing us to do talent ups right before the new contest begins was wrong
